    I imagine with the youth on the staff we will play with the dL and demotions to limit innings and manipulate service time


    I’m really hoping aa can turn guys like McCarthy, Sanchez, sims, wisler, Blair, Ruiz and demeritte into something useful.

    I think all of those guys have some value but most don’t have a ton and a future in atl

    He has to show he is better than them. AAA is a good place to sort those kinds of things out. Plus there will be one or two additional openings in the rotation due to injury/regression at the major league level. That's normal. Sometimes there is more, sometimes less. It will sort itself out.

    Its hard to say who will get injured. McCarthy obviously is the one who has been more brittle in recent years. But with pitchers even seemingly durable guys go down all the time.

    But if our starters defy the odds and stay healthy, I'm good with sending Newcomb down to work on his control while Fried is given a 10-game audition in the majors.

    I have doubts if you even love having nothing to do with golf.

    I do have an extreme aversion to golfers or more precisely to golfers who think other people have the most remote interest in their games.
